Fufu~ Was going to finish translating the rest of Jigoku Shoujo R chapter 5 tonight, but in the end I decided to make a New Year’s blog post, and some other notices~
Wow~ I can’t believe another year has gone by! I had a fun new year watching the fireworks in London~ They were really pretty! Good job Mayor of London~!
I hope this year I can continue to bring you manga releases and other nice things~ It’s nearly a year of Tama-tan too! I’ve ordered special edition volume 2 and looking forward to the new CD (I think there is one~)
Thank you too to everyone who has commented and passed by in 2009 ♥
This year I really caught up on my manga reading which improved my Japanese so much~ My favourite nakayoshi series has actually been Meruhen-chan xD (maybe just because I like these kind of weird gag series) But Watashi ni XX shinasi has been amazing as well. Even though I don’t talk about it a lot, I really love Momo too~ (Sakai Mayu is such an amazing artist) My absolute favourite manga series has been Kuroshitsuji though ♥ Can’t wait for the new anime series xD
So, does anyone have any resolutions for new year? Even though there are many things I hope to happen this year (that I can’t really talk about here, but might be able to later in the year) I have a few resolutions!
☆ To get hime-sama nails (⌒∇⌒)
I really like these ones from http://www.kawaiinails.com But I’d like to make my own… (I’ll probably end up buying though…)

☆ To increase Japanese vocabulary by 110% And learn how to write more kanji(^∧^) がんばります!
☆ To give blog a new layout OTL (I will get round to it)
☆ To do more work in Flash/Flex (maybe I’ll make my next layout with flash~ I’d really like to build some kind of Flex app as well~)
☆ To learn how to bake better~
☆ To keep my desk clean \(>◇<)/
Raws / Scans
Also….Nimakka has uploaded Chapter 9 of Watashi ni XX shinasai! : http://forums.mangafox.com/showthread.php?t=130308&page=2 (And might upload other series) So be sure to thank her properly!
On that note, because of some problems with leechers, I will be watermarking future raw releases (with big ‘not for scanlation use’ on them) Please, I do not want these raws uploaded to mangahelpers. Colour scans are fine, but don’t upload chapters! If you see anyone uploading my scans, please report it and tell me~ よろしくお願いします~ I’m counting on you~
Issue 2 scans for Nakayoshi (maybe Ribon) will be up next weekend, and might be password protected to stop people just giving the link out too.
Also, Hatsukoi Lunch Box scanlation post will be next weekend again too (will hopefully be less hectic this month!) I hope some people can help out again this month too!
Because I received a new scanner for christmas (it is a thing of ~beauty~) I’m hoping I’ll be able to edit the settings a bit better so cleaning is less work.
Happy New Year Cookie-Chan! Thank you for all that you have done this past year ! Watashi mo, yoroshiku onegaishimasu nee !!!
Happy New Years, cookie-san! ^^
Wow, lucky girl, you get to see fireworks! *jealous* x3
I’m looking forward to your future posts and I don’t think I’ll be disappointed. hehe
*gasp* Those nails are so purdy and gawjuzz~ *A*
Wish you much luck on all your resolutions (practice makes perfect ;D) and definitely will keep a lookout if there’s anyone misusing your scans. *salutes* lol, I’m such a dork. xD;
i wish i could see the fireworks in london as well! but this year, i saw them in paris and it was also very nice. oh, since when do you study japanese and are you studying it at a university?
i prefer buying my nails directly at yukiumi.com instead of kawaii nails, since they also have diy-sticker-stuff there…
Ah—
Happy New Year Too, cookie chan!
those nails looks so cute…i want it XD
anyway, i also saw the fireworks in London… although it’s from Tv, hehe
Happy New Year cookie-san! I hope you have a great start of the decade!
:) Good luck with the layout thing, but I quite like your current one. D:
Happy new year ^-^
I’m always looking forwards to your scans ^-^
Hi,
A very happy new year to you!~ Thank for uploading those raw.
By the way, did Momo end at chapter 17?
Thanks

Happy new year~ WxxS raws are my guilty pleasure ; 0 ;
omg those nails are so cute hnn ;A;
GLLLLL WITH NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS and for this year in general as well 0u0b
MOMO, Sakura Hime Kaden, and Heart no Dia has been uploaded by Raw Paradise (though deleted off the site by now).
Can I has your scanner pl0x? ^q^
Akemashite omedetou gozaimasu :) I am looking forward to the Ribon scans for Hiyokoi~ Thanks again for helping IMS out with that. kotoshi mo yoroshiku onegaishimasu.
Watashi XX ni shinasai is indeed an amasing manga. I’m loving it to bits. The shitsuji one is a little too yaoi’esque for me xD
@yuyeon: Ah do you live in France or were you just visiting? ahaha, I didn’t actually realise you could buy them straight from yukiumi.com (I never thought to google it) so thanks! I started studying Japanese when I was 16 for 2 years, then I went to university to do a degree in Graphic Design so I had to stop studying formally, and now I’m in my second year of studying since leaving univeristy (we’re doing an A-Level equivalent course if that means anything to you xD)
@Karin: It doesn’t end at Chapter 17, I can’t see Momo ending anytime soon, it’s one of the most popular series in Ribon.
@Kiseki: Thanks for the heads up!
@Gnuffie: You should have Hiyokoi scans next week too c: I’m glad imangascans is releasing it quickly xD Haha, I would love Kuroshitsuji even without the blatant shounen-ai fanservice (coughliescough) :’D
明けましておめでとうございます~!!!
今年もお世話になります。
You live in london
Wow , so great
Anyway , Thanks for last year ^^
Happy new year
